The card I that I have to show you today is simple, not many flowers…just one. Only because it has to go in mail and I have seen how the flowers are destroyed in the process… I have added a tissue paper flower. This particular flower was my first try at tissue paper flower (I’ve got better now). Its two tone; yellow and pink (also bit of red somewhere in between).

The paper is an internet download. I had to edit it a bit on Photoshop because I print at “fast normal” and usually the colours don't come out as bright as they originally are. I have roughly outlined the design on the papers with glitter, it looks better with the glitter trust me.

I have designed the sentiment myself. You can download the PNG and JPEG files (scroll down). This is how it looks originally.

“Someone or something so cute that the word cute itself has to morph into something cuter, thus cutie patootie was born” LOL

Here is the card that I have to show you today.

The stamps that I have used here are kids stamps (really pathetic quality). I had to stamp a dozen times to get the right image and even then you can see that the middle part of the teddy is incomplete.

The embossed white section of the card was bigger than the embossing folder and I had to run it through the bug twice. This was the first time I did that using cuttlebug.

I didn't have a pink cardstock so I coloured the borders with pencils and water colour pencils. The scalloped thingy around the rectangle has been coloured with markers and I used decorative scissors to make this. I even used a bit of marker on the ribbon to match it with the pink on the card.

I want your help in something. I am posting another pic here (same card, different place). Please let me know which one is better, the first pic or the second. It will be really helpful. Thanks in advance.
